Ultimately, we'd end up with a second large switch in a second function -- but it must be carefully kept in sync with any changes to the switch in mangleExpression. I think that'd just end up more likely to cause problems in the future, when new expression types are added. Additionally, the NotPrimaryExpr idiom is already in use in mangleValueInTemplateArg, and doing the same thing for both cases is helpful for understandability, IMO.
